Understanding Deferred Action For Dreamers

By Marissa Velazquez


Deferred action for dreamers is a scheme that seeks to offer immigrants a legal status that allows them to stay in the US for two years. Their stay may be extended upon fulfillment of certain conditions and positive evaluation from authorities. Male and female immigrants have an equal chance of benefiting from this program. It offers such privileges as possession of a driving license in some states and the right to apply and be granted a social security number.

The privileges that come with the DACA status also include the permission to work and get employed in any sector of the economy. It offers freedom for the beneficiaries to travel within and outside America for different reasons. The trip could be related to charity missions, education or for employment purposes. Such travel does not threaten your stay in US. The details about your status must be provided in the travel papers.

The department of immigration holds the right to approve or decline any application on their own terms. The withdrawal of such a status can only happen in the event that the applicant violates the code of conduct provided. Involvement in activities that are considered a threat to public security could lead to a recall of your status. Unsuccessful applicants can petition the board to reconsider its decision.

DACA does not guarantee automatic citizenship or permanent stay. The benefits secured under this status cannot be extended to relatives, guardians, spouses or dependents. Accuracy and selectivity are important when filling the forms. This will ensure that you are not prosecuted for wrongful information. It can be used as evidence in court. Consulting an immigration expert or seeking clarification for the Board of Migration appeal is advised.

Immigration agencies are better placed to guide you through the application process. There are non governmental organizations that support applicants through the process. They ensure accuracy and timely application. The possibility of a smooth process is enhanced by the support of experienced attorneys or officials. They will not compromise your current status through inaccurate representation.

The conditions of application are favorable to different categories of people. The age limits for applicants are between 15 and 31 years. This age must have been attained by January 15th 2012. The program also covers persons who went to the USA before they attained 15 years of age. Applicants are required to have stayed in the US for an uninterrupted period from June 15 2012 to date. A brief and explainable absence is understandable and cannot be used against you during deliberations for approval.

An applicant must submit completed forms and relevant documents in person. Agencies and attorneys are not allowed to complete the process on behalf of clients. Eligible persons must prove their presence in US on June 15th 2012. The process allows applicants who went to US without valid documents or approval by immigration offices to formalize their stay. Persons whose legal permits are expired can cease this opportunity.

Deferred action for dreamers accommodates persons who are in America to pursue their academic goals. It covers high school and college graduates. Service men who served diligently and were discharged honorably have a chance to apply and gain extended stay. An eligible candidate must have a clean criminal and civil record that does not make him a threat to national security. This includes damaging misdemeanor or acts that are contrary to the code provided in the DACA status.
